This has affected a lot of Tube car parks recently, we’ve had customer complaints about Osterley car park having fake QR codes. We’ve been covering them up if we spot them but the car parks are run by SABA, not LUL so there’s not a lot we can do otherwise.

Awful… RIP Saint Elijah.

Tougher fixtures to start with please while we finalise the squad by the end of the window, then easier fixtures at the end of the season when we may need points on the board. Brentford at home is my prediction for first fixture.

I made this comment straight after Bellingham’s goal… But the simple fact is that while we were poor on the whole, 6 more results like that and we’re coming home with the trophy. (Actually, technically, we could draw one of our next two and lose the other, still go through the group stage and then win the next 4 and we’d still have the trophy.) (Actually actually we could not win another game and still come home with the trophy if we draw one of the next two games then succeed in 4 penalty shoot outs!) It’s a results business ultimately… but anyway I do think England will improve.

Listening to TalkSport on the way to work just now and they ran through Foden's stats. Truly woeful. There's no doubt that he's probably have been in over 90 per cent of people's starting line ups tonight but he did very little and his place is in jeopardy. Eze, Palmer, Gordon - all those will be chomping at the bit to get game time and yet Foden stayed on for the whole game. As did Kane, who also did very little. It's one of those weird results where people talk about the performance more than the win - effectively we only need a point from the next two and we're through - but that performance was poor. Fair play to Serbia though who got better as the game went on. England Credit where it's deserved though, Bellingham was excellent in that first half as was Saka, Rice was great all game and I thought Pickford and Guehi had very good games too. Defensively we were solid, which at least lets us build a foundation on which to improve. But nobody will be scared to play us just yet. Hopefully it's one of those tournaments where we get better as it goes on. I'm working for the next England game but I'm in the pub for Slovenia - and I'm looking forward to it.

A win is a win. But that was a hard second half.

It's not been a classic but if we can hold on, it'd be a big win as this is our toughest of the 3 fixtures IMO.

Good save Pickford

I'd even take Gordon for something different.

Foden has been off it tonight. Get him off.

Kane off the bar. Eek

Bellingham excellent so far. Rice, Saka and Guehi good. The rest... meh.

I don't mind Trent and I picked him for his position today but he started iffily. However he made a good interception for the Walker chance and now good footwork for the free kick. Mixed bag so far. Foden hasn't been great so far, Saka and Bellingham the picks and Guehi has been good at the back.

Come on Kyle that was a great chance!

Nice one Trent. Chance for Mitro

Was a good header. Now let's get a second and not be all 'England' about it.

I think we should bring Paul Onuachu back into the fold. My FM game seems to rate him according to the glitch that just happened... EDIT - the actual scorer of the hattrick was... Sekou Mara.

Well worked corner from Italy. Equaliser.

Huge fuck up from Italy!

Can't believe that Yamal for Spain is only 16. He looked excellent, rapid, great vision, great control. Kid is going to be a superstar. *SNSUN checks to make sure this comment is on the Euro thread and not the Summer Transfer thread...*

Cracking goal from Spain.

Definitely looking at a free transfer signings to bolster the squad then (Adam, Ghoddos, Fraser, possibly O’Hare) - I’m ok with it as long as we’re saving the big bucks for improving the first team... and we probably need 6 of those. We don’t have the quality in the squad to be penny pinching now we’ve got back to the Prem. I’m not saying we need to go balls out like Forest did when they got promoted but we definitely need decent investment in the first team.

I suppose one way to look at it is that excluding THB (who we knew we were getting last summer anyway if we got promoted) is that Lallana is our first summer signing so... it can only get better from here! Right? 😬

I was going to watch this second half over getting ready for work but it looks like it’s going to be all ten men behind the ball for Scotland. Snore.
